One-stop shopping for your preschooler’s learning needs – whether learning basic knowledge and concepts for kindergarten readiness or learning a 1st, 2nd or multiple languages. SPECIAL PRICE FOR NEW RELEASE!

Feed Me! – PencilBot Preschool Learning Center is a series by our team of teachers, game designers, and parents who have developed educational games for over 10 years. This series is already popular on iPhone/iPad – see reviews below.

OVERVIEW

This app consists of 1 free sampler and 12 In-App-Purchases (IAPs), each in a specific language. The sampler includes 20 questions in different languages to give you a taste of what the PencilBot Preschool Learning Center offers.

The 12 IAPs (US English, UK English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Mexican Spanish, French, German, Italian, Arabic, Russian or Hindi) expose your child to new languages and tap into their natural ability to learn multiple languages.

My 3 year old son adores this app.
Out of all my apps, he comes to this one time and again, and i find it to be one of the best kids apps… He started playing this app when he was 2 1/2 … I can see him still playing this app at 5. It has lots of room for a child to grow into. -- Tammattam

Great for pre-schoolars (v2.0)
…Reinforces the alphabet and helps show children relationships of objects and concepts. -- bruinb77

Cute Little Game
